DEPAUL USA INC's Fundraiser:

Support Our Shelter Cat

THE STORY:

Bubbles arrived at Depaul House, a shelter for homeless men, in August 2011. She was a tiny kitten - only six weeks old - but she had had a rough life. Her left rear leg was missing and she was hungry, flea-bitten and lonely. The men at Depaul took her in, built her a house out of cardboard and instantly fell in love with her.

Since then, she's become a part of the life at Depaul House and she helps the residents calm down after a stressful day. She helps make our "house" a "home". The vet thinks that Bubbles was mistreated when she was a kitten and that someone kicked her, resulting in a broken pelvis and broken leg which eventually partially fell off. Because she has overcome so much hardship, the residents at Depaul House admire her resilience. They even wrote our first blog post about her: http://insidedepaul.wordpress.com/

We've taken her to the vet numerous times since she's arrived to ensure that she's healthy and happy. The generous folks at VCA Cat Hospital of Philadelphia examined her in March 2012 and have concluded that she needs surgery to have her leg amputated to the hip. VCA has generously offered to donate half of the cost of the surgery, but we need to raise the rest. The men at Depaul have offered to donate what they can to help her, but they don't have deep pockets. The staff have also offered to help. But we need generous people like you to help us afford Bubbles' surgery so she can lead a life full of playing and napping.

IN PROGRESS

It will take anywhere from 3 seconds to 1 minute for your pic to upload, depending on how big it is.

You're going to see this message every time you post a new pic. So, we're making the text really long so that it'll take you at least five picture uploads to read it all. Here's what we're thinking...While your first picture is uploading think about someone you want to kiss. When you upload your second pic think about one friend who you can beat in a race. On your third photo upload think about your favorite food that begins with the letter H. While your fourth picture is uploading think about how great it would be if you were a world class breakdancer. While your fifth picture is uploading try to think of the best candy to eat if you were a mime spending a month in New Zealand. If you upload a sixth and seventh picture please just read all of this again.

IN PROGRESS
